I was permanently banned from the Reddit sub without recourse for posting this despite not breaking any rules. I'm slowly making the migration over thanks to such encouragement.

You're sure it wasn't for... other reasons?
You might say that Reddit is mostly just high fructose corn syrup, while Lemmy is pure, responsibly sourced honey.
How old is that bottle? I looked at their website and they don't even sell this product.
Report them to… I think it’s the FDA that oversees food labels?
They’re violating federal regulations.
That is absolutely revolting.
it had me worried for a minute: same bear, same colored label, grocery store brand so it could be from anywhere. I had to check. Nope, not Texas. Whew. (Jk, not corn syrup)
Hmm that would be illegal in the EU and UK, where nutritional info and proportion of honey would be required.
Quite tempted to write in though. Anyone else?
It is also required in America. The FDA requires it except for small business. Also the EU wouldn't even let this have the word "Honey" in the name at all. I'd assume that the retail business above doesn't reach the threshold of 500,000 so can request for an exemption of nutritional labeling.
A local supermarket chain got a fine because they had "fake cheese" sold in the cheese section. It wasn't labeled as cheese, but it was under a large CHEESE banner. I think it was leftovers from cheese production just mixed up.
I'm ok with not throwing away stuff, but it tasted like sin, even for cheap industrial cheese standard.
Your username may have something to do with it
ITT:
Americans: I'm so used to being lied to about literally everything that this doesn't seem that bad.
Smh...
It isn't that bad.
It says "made with real honey", which is a pretty big clue that it isn't real honey.
It says "texas honey blend", again indicating that it's honey blended with something.
And, as for "gourmet" it's in a plastic bear-shaped container, it's not a luxury item.
If people want to buy stuff made from high fructose corn syrup, shouldn't they be allowed to do it? How much more obvious does it need to be that this isn't pure honey?
I guess this is pretty American of me, but it's called "honey blend" for a reason.
I’m American, and honey blend implies to me that it is a mix of different types of honey. Like clover honey and whatnot. Kinda like a Red blend wine is a mix of different wines, not 50% merlot/50% rubbing alcohol or something.
